Our Penguin Young Reader division has launched season 2 of the We Are YA podcast!
This season is filled with short episodes with different YA authors talking about how they’re doing during the time of COVID-19, as well as what they’re working on, and what they’re reading and watching! Be sure to share this with your teen & tween students so they can get messages directly from their favorite authors!
We’ve linked our current favorite episode (it changes every day!), with Ruta Sepetys, author of The Fountains of Silence, Salt to the Sea, Out of the Easy, and Between Shades of Gray. From there, you can find the rest of the season, including the most recent episodes with Tochi Onyebuchi, Marie Lu, Danielle Vega, and Laurie Halse Anderson.
We are pleased to share a new teacher’s guide for the The Small and the Mighty by Sharon McMahon. In The Small and the Mighty, Sharon McMahon proves that the most remarkable Americans are often ordinary people who didn’t make it into the textbooks. Not the presidents, but the telephone operators. Not the aristocrats, but the schoolteachers. Through
